CarPlay Screen for Nissan Micra (2016-2020): How to Install Android Auto and Apple CarPlay

CarPlay Screen for Nissan Micra (2016-2020)

The Nissan Micra is one of the best-selling superminis of the Japanese brand in Spain, but if your unit was built before touchscreens with connectivity became standard, your original radio has probably fallen well behind what modern cars offer. Neither Apple CarPlay nor Android Auto came from the factory on many versions from this period, forcing you to keep using your phone in hand or basic Bluetooth hands-free calling. Fortunately, there is a simple and affordable way to bring your Micra up to date without buying a new car.

Does the Nissan Micra have CarPlay as standard?

It depends on the version and the trim it left the factory with. On many Nissan Micra units built during this period, the original radio is a basic system without a large touchscreen, or with a screen that only offers radio, Bluetooth and, at most, a USB connection for music. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto were not available on base trims and only arrived on some higher trims with the premium navigation package. If your Micra doesn't have them, that doesn't mean you have to go without: they can be added with an Android radio built specifically for your model.

Installation is plug & play thanks to the Nissan Micra's specific CAN-BUS connector:

  1. The original radio is removed from the dashboard opening.
  2. The Micra-specific wiring harness is connected, with no cutting or splicing of cables.
  3. The custom-fit adapter frame is fitted so it looks factory-installed.
  4. The Android system is set up, the phone is paired, and the steering wheel controls, sensors and rear camera are checked.

The whole process takes between 30 and 60 minutes and can be carried out by any car audio installer or a user with basic car electronics knowledge.
